Mario,
You may not need the other piece or pieces, whatever the case may be.
Some kits come with extra parts. I suspect the kits can be used for more
than one application or different years in which some parts may not be
needed for all applications. I know when I rebuilt my master cylinder I had
some extra parts but it's been too long ago to tell you what was left over.
Wonder if anyone else has had a similar experience?
